Joe Biden Says He's Considering Kamala as His Running Mate. But Will He Get Confused and Blow It?

Does anyone ever really go away? We’re all just dust in the wind, and politics blows. Therefore, Beto’s poised to be on a Texas ticket soon (here and here). And what of Kamala? If you were already missing her, there’s good news.

On Wednesday, Joe Biden suggested he’d consider the California senator as his good-time running mate, once he snags the 2020 Democratic nomination.

Kamala just declared her campaign deceased on Tuesday, and blammo — Return of the Living Dead.

This could be a good thing for her — her own outfit suffered internally (here) and, according to her, financially. Maybe being part of Biden’s team would up her administrative game.

Furthermore, of course, she lacked the polling steam to make it to the Oval Office herself, so jumping in the cart as Robin next to Biden’s motorcycling Caped Crusader may be the perfect transport to take her all the way to the White House.

Or, at least, all the way to the election.

And wouldn’t it jolt Joe? He’d no doubt get points for sexual and racial diversity, and it’d knock down the average age of his offering — Harris is 22 years younger.

As per CNN, here’s what he had to say on the subject of sidekicking the senator:

“Of course I would (consider her). Look, Sen. Harris has the capacity to be anything she wants to be. I mean it sincerely. I talked to her yesterday. She’s solid, she can be president someday herself, she can be vice president, she could go on to be a Supreme Court justice, she could be attorney general. I mean she has enormous capability.”

So there ya go — they could be the Democratic Party’s new Starsky and Hutch. Although Biden, given his amorous ways, would be far more appropriately Huggy Bear.
